I *need* to save it multiple places if I ever find it again.

"One of the most dangerous jobs in america is working at a meat packing plant, and it could soon be g --"
Gay. It could soon be gay. (Gayer? Cuz gd the pun potential with meat packing alone is)



On how faster-than-light info would affect (our understanding of) causality: "And then nothing makes sense anymore." Since when has science stopped testing things that seemed "unintuitive" on the first pass?
Wouldn't that just sort itself out, and then we'd make new inferences to test? Cuz it sounds like an additional dimension of time would be useful here. Which... is probably a meme. "Just add a new dimension!" Ok yeah, but what if we did tho. (Eddie Woo intensifies.)

But yeah, I am confused about the polaritons.
(Polaritrons? I'm not hearing stuff / processing audio precisely, lately. ) Light has a shape? Or, like, a shape in time? Cuz that -3, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3 image looks a lot like a light cone on a time-space diagram. To me, at least. The things with the light at diagonal lines in space.
Wait. Spin? Do photons have spin? I'm gonna get a used copy of my uni textbook off someone and try to remember anything. Yaaay Long Covid! (Twice, Doubled, or Squared! Per your preference.)

9:40 ok, I get we all live in a money-obsessed hellscape, but nothing needs to be "useful" in order to be worth learning about, appreciating, or observing at all.

On FTL and causality: add new time. Light vortices look a lot like a light cone on a time-space diagram to me.
Do photons have spin...? Long Covid sucks.
While we all live in a money-obsessed hellscape, nothing needs "utility" to be worth testing or knowing.

23:30 Calamines? Getting that DS9 episode from the first season / series in my head now, gdi. (Without a visual, unsure if intentional? Might have gotten copyright claimed tho.)
Cataractonia? Cataracti...? Idk how Latins do the pluraling, if indeed they did.
24:50 OMG I NEED THAT HAIR STYLE.
32:00 'Nines' hmmm? Voyager? HMMMM?
40:00 aaaaHA! You *are* a nerd!

Oh my gods, how long have we been able to link to youtube comments directly and you fuckers didn't tell me?!?!
Chat is evil, 100% proof.

Here, have some links. I won't ever become a medical doctor nor clinician of any kind, but I feel a kinship with their whole vibe.
Time for bed, anyway. Cats would rather catch the damn moth, but we haven't put up the cat shelves yet because neither of us knows how.

". In fact, SMI reduces lifespans by more than diabetes, severe obesity and even smoking – but the public wrongly [thinks] these conditions and risk factors have
a bigger negative impact.
There is a common misperception that suicide is a key driver of reduced lifespan in those with SMI
• The public think suicide is the most common factor that reduces life expectancy among those with SMI, with 50% listing it as a common cause, when in reality it accounts for less than 10 % of excess mortality.
There are also misperceptions about which groups SMI is more prevalent in
• Only 14% correctly recognise the higher prevalence of SMI among Black African and Black Caribbean British communities, and just 27% correctly recognise the higher prevalence of SMI in urban
areas. "
